Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a laser energy measurement device and method, and in particular to a laser energy measurement device and method based on thermal balance type water direct absorption. Background Art

[0002] Power / energy is a key metric for high-energy laser systems and is typically measured. As laser power and energy continue to increase, so too do measurement methods. Compared to conventional lasers, high-energy lasers possess significant destructive power, posing significant measurement challenges. Furthermore, the lack of a standard calibration source for high-power lasers requires more complex physical and chemical processes to be involved in the measurement process, increasing the sources of measurement uncertainty and thus raising concerns about measurement accuracy.

[0003] The existing laser power / energy measurement methods include indirect measurement technology and direct measurement technology; (1) Indirect measurement technology mainly obtains power / energy based on the laser after sampling the measurement part, mainly including spectroscopic sampling method, CCD imaging method, array detection method, etc.; The disadvantages of indirect measurement technology include: First, indirect measurement uses large-rate attenuation, which can reach thousands to tens of thousands of times. On the one hand, the attenuation multiple is difficult to determine accurately, and on the other hand, the measurement accuracy of weak signals is limited, resulting in low reliability of the final result, and therefore it is usually not used as a laser power / energy identification method; second, the attenuation component is easily damaged under high-power / energy laser irradiation; (2) Direct measurement technology mainly includes passive absorption type and active absorption type; the passive absorption type measurement method uses Solid materials (such as copper, graphite, etc.) are processed into special structures (such as reflection cones, integrating spheres, etc.) to absorb energy, and the temperature change is calculated to determine the laser energy. This is limited by the thermal conductivity and damage threshold of the solid material itself. At the same time, the heat exchange rate of the material is relatively low. When the energy and power of the laser are high, the surface of the material will be damaged due to excessive temperature, so it is not suitable for measuring high-power and high-energy lasers; the active absorption type uses water or other substances as a cooling medium to convert the incident laser into water temperature or other temperature, and determines the laser energy by calculating the temperature rise, which greatly improves the upper limit of measurement; the main disadvantage is that the measured laser power / energy is low due to the limited water in the cavity and slow heat dissipation, which is not suitable for high-power / energy laser measurement.

[0004] In summary, existing laser energy measurement devices cannot achieve long-term, high-precision measurement of high-energy lasers while meeting the requirements of a small volume structure. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0007] A laser energy measurement device based on thermal balance type water direct absorption is special in that it includes a cooling device, and a cavity front shell and a cavity rear shell respectively connected to the two ends of the cooling device;

[0019] Furthermore, the window includes a window body and an incident plate;

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] 1. The present invention absorbs laser light through the water in the cavity, converts the laser energy into water temperature, and continuously removes heat through cooling water, so that the device can absorb more laser energy while using a smaller volume of water.

[0049] The “front and back” directions mentioned in the article are the same as those in the attached Figure 1 The "left-right" direction on paper.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention is a laser energy measurement device based on thermal balance type water direct absorption, including a cooling device 3, and a cavity front shell 1 and a cavity rear shell 2 respectively connected to the two ends of the cooling device 3, wherein the cavity front shell 1 and the cavity rear shell 2 are both made of copper.

In other embodiments of the present invention, the material of the incident plate 42, the material of the window body 41 and the connection method of the window body 41 and the cavity front shell 1 can also be adaptively adjusted according to specific needs.

[0052] The cooling device 3 includes a plurality of thermopiles 31, a plurality of cooling parts 32, a plurality of connecting rings 33, a plurality of sealing members 36, a plurality of water inlet pipes 34, and a plurality of water outlet pipes 35; wherein the cooling parts 32 and the connecting rings 33 are both made of copper; the specific number of cooling parts 32 can be specifically designed according to the size of the laser energy. The higher the laser energy, the more corresponding cooling parts 32 are, and the more water in the cavity 5 can be used to absorb the laser energy; the cooling parts 32 and the connecting rings 33 are both annular structures, and the wall thickness of the cooling parts 32 is greater than the wall thickness of the connecting rings 33; the plurality of cooling parts 32 and the plurality of connecting rings 33 are coaxially arranged along the front and rear directions, and the plurality of cooling parts 32 are arranged along the front and rear directions. They are arranged in sequence in the rear direction and there is a gap between two adjacent cooling parts. Multiple connecting rings 33 are respectively arranged between two adjacent cooling parts 32 and connected to the cooling parts 32; the end of the first cooling part 32 in the front-to-back direction is connected to the other end of the front shell 1 of the cavity 5, and the end of the last cooling part 32 is connected to the end of the rear shell 2 of the cavity 5; in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to prevent the heat transfer problem caused by the connection of connecting parts (bolts, etc.), the cooling parts 32 and the connecting rings 33 are designed to adopt an interference fit, and the front shell 1 of the cavity and the rear shell 2 of the cavity are respectively interference fit with the corresponding cooling parts 32, which not only solves the heat transfer problem but also makes the connection effect more reliable.

[0053] The cavity in the front shell 1 of the cavity, the cavity in multiple cooling parts 32 and the connecting ring 33, and the cavity in the rear shell 2 of the cavity are connected in sequence to form a cavity 5 for storing water; a thermopile 31 is provided at each end of the cooling part 32 for measuring the temperature at the corresponding position of the cooling part 32, and the material of the thermopile 31 is graphite.

[0054] The cooling part 32 is provided with a water channel 6 along the circumferential direction. Figure 2 As shown, the water channel 6 is a spiral structure; multiple water inlet pipes 34, seals 36, and water outlet pipes 35 are respectively arranged in one-to-one correspondence with multiple cooling parts 32, and a seal 36 is mounted on the circumference of the corresponding cooling part 32 to seal the water channel 6 on the corresponding cooling part 32 so that it is in a closed space; the seal 36 is made of stainless steel. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an insulating layer can also be provided on the seal 36 to reduce the heat dissipation of water; one end of a water inlet pipe 34 is connected to the spiral inlet of the water channel 6 in the corresponding cooling part 32, and one end of the water outlet pipe 35 is connected to the spiral outlet of the water channel 6.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a water inlet 7 is provided on the cavity front shell 1, and a water outlet 8 is provided on the cavity rear shell 2; in this embodiment, the water inlet 7 and the water outlet 8 are respectively provided on the peripheral sides of the cavity front shell 1 and the cavity rear shell 2, and in other embodiments of the present invention, they can also be provided at the ends of the cavity front shell 1 and the cavity rear shell 2; an input pipe 9, an output pipe 10 and a water pump 11 are also provided; one end of the input pipe 9 is connected to the water inlet 7, and the other end is connected to the output end of the water pump 11; one end of the output pipe 10 is connected to the water outlet 8, and the other end is connected to the input end of the water pump 11. The water pump 11 is provided to quickly output the water in the cavity 5 through the water outlet 8 and input through the water inlet 7, which can accelerate the water flow rate in the cavity 5, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the water.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, valves 12 are provided at both the water inlet 7 and the water outlet 8 , which not only have a sealing effect but also can adjust the flow rate at the water inlet 7 and the water outlet 8 .

[0057] In this device, heat loss mainly includes heat conduction from the body, heat conduction from the water to the window 4, and radiation heat transfer from the water to the space through the window 4. However, due to the following reasons: First, the thermal conductivity of glass is much lower than that of copper, so the heat loss in this part is relatively small; second, although the temperature rise of the water is about 60 degrees Celsius, the heat transfer is concentrated in the cooling device 3, so the external radiation heat transfer is relatively small; therefore, the heat loss of this device is relatively small.

[0058] The present invention provides a laser energy measurement method based on thermal equilibrium type water direct absorption, based on a laser energy measurement device based on thermal equilibrium type water direct absorption, comprising the following steps:

[0059] Step 1: Measure the temperature of corresponding positions through multiple thermopiles 31 at both ends of the cooling part 32, take the average of the temperatures measured by all thermopiles 31 as the initial temperature T1, and record it;

[0060] Step 2: The laser to be measured is incident into the cavity 5 through the window 4. The water in the cavity 5 absorbs the laser energy and converts the laser energy into heat energy of the water.

[0061] During the process of water heat energy being transferred in the front-to-back direction, cooling water is continuously supplied to the water channel 6 through an external chiller, so that the temperature of the cooling water in the water channel 6 is always kept at a stable value;

[0062] Step 3: When the temperature measured by the thermopiles 31 is observed to be stable, thermal equilibrium is reached. The temperatures at the corresponding positions are measured in real time by the thermopiles 31 at both ends of each cooling component 32. The average of the temperatures measured by all the thermopiles 31 is taken as the measured temperature T2 and recorded.

[0063] Step 4: Calculate the heat flow Φ;

[0064]

[0065] Where: A is the sum of the internal surface areas of the multiple cooling parts 32, in m 2 ; λ is the thermal conductivity of the cooling part 32, in W / (m*K); T is the temperature rise, in °C, T=T2-T1; x is the length of the cooling part 32 in the front-to-back direction, in m; q is the heat flux density, in W / m 2 ;

[0066] Step 5. Heat flux is the amount of heat passing through a given area per unit time. When laser irradiation occurs, water absorbs laser energy. Theoretically, water can absorb all the total energy of laser irradiation without any heat loss. Therefore, the laser power / energy that this device can measure depends on the heat transfer and heat dissipation conditions within the device. That is, the thermal conductivity formula can be used as the calculation formula for laser power. In other words, the value of the heat flux Φ obtained is equal to the value of the laser power, completing the measurement of laser power / energy.

[0067] The actual calculation results are as follows: For copper, the thermal conductivity is 400W / (m*K), the area A of a cooling part 32 is the internal contact area, the inner diameter of the cooling part 32 is 200mm, the length is 25mm, and the thickness is 25mm. To deviate the temperature from the distance, and to prevent the water temperature from being too high and causing phase change, the water temperature can be set from a normal temperature of 20 degrees Celsius to about 80 degrees Celsius, that is, the laser power that can be cooled by a cooling component 32 is:

[0068]

[0069] Assuming that the device is designed with 14 cooling parts 32, the calculation results are as follows:

[0070]

[0071] The total length of the cooling device 3 is the length of the 14 cooling parts 32 plus the length of the connecting ring 33, that is, the calculation result:

[0072] l=0.025·14+0.006·13=0.428m;

[0073] Consult the literature to calculate how much laser energy can be measured by existing cyclic active absorption type;

[0074] Pt=mC△T;

[0075] Among them, P represents power, t represents time, m represents the mass of water, C represents the specific heat capacity of water, and △T represents temperature rise.

[0076] According to the calculation result, the cavity size is 200mm in diameter and approximately 400mm in length, the density of water is 1000kg / m 3 , the specific heat capacity of water is 4200J / (kg·℃), the mass of water is calculated as 12.566kg by the formula m=ρv, and the temperature rise of water is 60℃; it is found through the experiment on the fixed mass water type direct absorption device that the water temperature can rise to 60℃ only after 180s of laser irradiation, and the calculation result is 17592.919W.

[0077] It can be found through comparison that the fixed mass water type direct absorption device with similar size can absorb less laser energy, so the laser measuring device of the present application has better effect than the prior art.
